(Lack of) Value in the Regional Model

[Ilovepineapples]

Dear Disgruntled Kevin;

I full heartedly agree with your statements. I have the same sentiments when it comes to FRC and the costs associated with the Regional system. I've compiled the numbers as well and I'm surprised that more areas in the Midwest haven't already moved to Districts. From the team's perspective you get so much more bang for your buck. I haven't had too much time to look into scores and statistics between regional and district events this year but looking through the spreadsheets that Ether posted earlier this morning, it appears that the average scores in district events are higher than regional events (after a brief glance). At the end of the season I would like to see the community work together to do a statistical analysis of scores between district and regional events. As time goes on, I only see more benefits to the district system when compared with the regional system. I'm looking forward to the future.

Sincerely,

Disgruntled community member.
